Triforce Oblivion: Death of a Legend, Birth of Destruction
By: Tasumi Ashiru
Prologue: Declined Faith
"Goddess why..." Link bowed his head down before the triforce, his head resting in his hands as tears of frustration rolled down his cheeks. "What have I done to deserve this? Am I not to live a normal life just once, in my cold meager existence live the life of a normal man?" Link blinked his eyes and looked up at the glowing Triforces. "Tell me Din, Nayru, Fayore... What have I done to be so cursed, to live a fate equal to Ganon's in darkness and despair?"
"Nothing child" Din appeared before Link. Her long crimson robes flowing from her body, like a breeze was rushing by her.
"Then why am I destined to live in such misery?" Link bowed to the goddess of power, his head bent down showing Link's shame of his own weakness.
"Child it is your fate.. You should learn to embrace it, even with all it's pitfalls and sadness." Fayore sat floating above the ground like her other sister, her long green hair cascading down past her hips. Raising her golden gloved hand, she waved it in a rather posh motion and raised her voice slightly. "Besides, your life could have been a whole lot worse."
"Sister!" Nayru appeared beside Link and knelt down beside him. "You shouldn't speak to him like that can't you see he is in so much pain." Nayru placed a blue and silver gloved hand on his shoulder and smiled. "Besides without him we would have no universe to watch over."
"Please.. don't argue over my fate goddess Nayru. Goddess Fayore is right I should learn to embrace pain more like a man." Link's frown became even deeper as he got up, after carefully removing Nayru's hand from his shoulder and placing it in her lap after kissing it softly.
"But Link.. no one deserves kindness more than you." Nayru smiled and looked up at the hero of time.
After smiling back at Nayru, Link spun around and faced Fayore narrowing his eyes slightly. "Has it ever dawned on you that I am not a man!?" Link collapsed on his knees before the Goddess and allowed his head to fall forward, the floppy hat he normally wore falling on to the ground at his knees.
"Aye my child... However this is your fate." Fayore brought her hand down on his shoulder and lowered her head. "This is the only comfort that I can offer you my dear."
"But how much more can I take. Don't you know a human does have limits.. that my body and soul and only take so much?" Link looked up at Fayore then over at Din who was just sitting there watching the other two goddesses.
"Child, my dear precious Link, the only weapon we have against Ganondorf, Please do not lose faith. Please, I know you want to give up and for us to intervene but we cannot.. That puts all of Hyrule at risk.. and that is a price none of us can pay." Din walked over to join her other sisters. "I am sorry I can offer no promise of a bright future Link." Din vanished from the room followed by Fayore and a crying Nayru.
"So that is what I am. A weapon." Link looked up at the Triforce with tears rolling down his flushed cheeks. "It would have been better had I been born with no soul. Then the truth would not hurt me so much Din." Link reached down to the floor and lifted his hat off of the ground and placed it on his head.
